Ingredients
  

1 ripe banana, mashed

2 tablespoons chia seeds

1 cup unsweetened almond milk

1 tablespoon maple syrup (adjust based on sweetness preference)

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

A pinch of cinnamon (optional)

Fresh banana slices and chia seeds for garnish

Nuts or granola for topping (optional)

Instructions
 

In a mixing bowl, combine the mashed banana, chia seeds, almond milk, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and cinnamon (if using).

    Stir well until all ingredients are fully combined and the chia seeds are evenly distributed.

      Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or transfer the mixture to individual serving jars for easy storage.

        Place the bowl or jars in the refrigerator and let it sit for at least 4 hours, or overnight. This allows the chia seeds to absorb the almond milk and thicken the pudding.

          Once ready to serve, stir the pudding well to break up any clumps. If it’s too thick, you can add a splash of almond milk to achieve your desired consistency.

            Serve the pudding in bowls or jars, garnishing with fresh banana slices, a sprinkle of chia seeds, and your choice of nuts or granola for added crunch.
